CASE: I-485 based on I-140 (EB-1)
APPLICANT: Egyptian
LOCATION: Cleveland, OH
Our client is a chemist from Egypt, who is currently working at a large hospital in Cleveland as a researcher. He is an outstanding and internationally renowned researcher in his field of endeavor, and filed his I-140 (EB-1B) self-petition to the USCIS. While his I-140 petition was pending, he contacted our office for legal assistance of his and his wife’s I-485 adjustment of status applications.
On February 22, 2016, he retained us for their I-485 adjustment of status applications. Our office filed an I-485 adjustment of status application for our client and his wife on March 15, 2016. Everything went smoothly and the receipt notices and fingerprint appointment came on time. His I-140 self-petition was approved by the USCIS.
Eventually, on July 18, 2016, the USCIS Nebraska Service Center approved our client and his wife’s adjustment of status applications. They are now green card holders.
